Annotated ATGs have a Kozak consensus sequence

Highly translated Annotated ATGs have a Kozak consensus sequence

That’s for hiTrans_JEC21, the top 5% (330) translated genes by RPF TPM.

Cytoplasmic Ribosome Annotated ATGs have a Kozak consensus sequence

Upstream ATGs don’t have a consensus

First upstream ATG.

Downstream ATGs don’t have a consensus

First downstream ATG

Downstream ATGs in frame and highly translated don’t have a consensus

Except for 3rd-codon-position bias.

Calculate a wide and a narrow consensus sequence

Calculate motif score against the position weight matrix (pwm) for both narrow (-4 from ATG through to ATG) and wide (-10 from ATG to ATG) kozak consensus motif. These motifs are taken from the top 5% highly translated genes.

Estimate the information content

Using the sequence logo, details on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_logo.

This is equal to the total height of the letters in the sequence logo summed across multiple positions.

## # A tibble: 6 x 4
##   Genes    ATG   Width  Infon
##   <chr>    <chr> <chr>  <dbl>
## 1 All      aATG  narrow 1.03 
## 2 HiTrans  aATG  narrow 2.84 
## 3 CytoRibo aATG  narrow 4.01 
## 4 All      d1ATG narrow 0.131
## 5 HiTrans  d1ATG narrow 0.307
## 6 CytoRibo d1ATG narrow 0.517

Information content in bits of highly-translated consensus (excluding 6 bits from ATG), narrow is 2.84, of wide is 3.81.

Estimate information content per base across start context

This is equal to the total height of the letters in the sequence logo at each position. It could be useful in comparing the total information without getting overly distracted by the actual letters.

Calculate scores of aATG, dATG, uATG against Kozak consensus

We calculate scores using Biostrings::PWMscoreStartingAt.

The best description I could find of this method is: https://support.bioconductor.org/p/61520/

It is just the sum of the matrix product of the PWM with the sequence.

Write scores to file scores_kozak_JEC21.txt.

Plot against narrow consensus (-5 to ATG)

Narrow consensus comparing d1ATG to d2ATG score

Narrow consensus d1ATG score by frame

Plot against wide consensus (-9 to +3 from ATG)

Wide consensus comparing d1ATG to d2ATG score

For all annotated genes

For highly translated genes

For cytoplasmic ribosomal proteins

This illustrates that the MI between pairs of nts is generally weak. Except for the nts sharing a codon in the +4 to +12 positions. And secondarily at the -6 to -4 positions.

What is the -5 correlation in hiTrans genes?

What is the -5 correlation in cyto ribo genes?

So there is a strong tendency to have a C at -5 if there is a T at -6.

What about the -4 correlation in hiTrans genes?

What about the -4 correlation in cyto ribo genes?

This is very interesting: essentially everything with a -4A has a -2A and -1A, but a -4C is more relaxed.

What about the -1 correlation in hiTrans genes?

What about the -1 correlation in cyto ribo genes?

This looks interesting and needs a better way of summarizing.

Most dATG scores are less than aATG scores

Most u1ATG scores are less than aATG scores

For highly translated genes, most dATG scores are much less than aATG

Red: high dATG vs aATG Kozak score. Blue: highly translated. Purple: both.

dATG vs aATG ribosome occupancy depends on the context

For top 3315 / 50% of genes by mean RNA TPM.

dATG vs aATG ribosome occupancy depends on the context, geometric mean across reps

There is slight enrichment in high-score dATGs in frame near the aATG

Load predictions from mitofates

In input file JEC21_mitofates_26June2018.txt.

Genes with high dATG vs aATG score are enriched in mitochondrial presequences

However, mito-localized genes do not have a distinctive aATG context

It’s just a subset: the dual-localized ones.

Mitofates and d1ATG/d2ATG narrow score

uATGs are associated with lower absolute translation

uATGs are associated with lower translation efficiency

uATGs associated with lower translation efficiency are over 20nt from TSS

uATG score does not strongly affect TE

We suspect that uATG is associated with lower TE if the uATG has * position at least 20nt downstream from TSS * higher score

This figure shows that, for genes with only 1 uATG, this correlation is weak.

List of genes with low TE and uATGs far from TSS

Check these for ribosome occupancy at uATG.

Plot against narrow consensus (-5 to ATG)

Plot against wide consensus (-9 to +3 from ATG)

For all annotated genes

For highly translated genes

For cytoplasmic ribosomal proteins

This illustrates that the MI between pairs of nts is generally weak. Except for the nts sharing a codon in the +4 to +12 positions. And secondarily at the -6 to -4 positions.

What is the -5 correlation in hiTrans genes?

What is the -5 correlation in cyto ribo genes?

So there is a strong tendency to have a C at -5 if there is a T at -6.

What about the -4 correlation in cyto ribo genes?

This is uninteresting because the counts are so low with no -4A. The -3A is even worse.

Most dATG scores are less than aATG scores

Most u1ATG scores are less than aATG scores

For highly translated genes, most dATG scores are much less than aATG

dATG vs aATG ribosome occupancy and score, geometric mean across reps

Load predictions from mitofates

In input file H99_mitofates_26June2018.txt.

Genes with high dATG vs aATG score are enriched in mitochondrial presequences

However, mito-localized genes do not have a distinctive aATG context

It’s just a subset: the dual-localized ones.

uATGs are associated with lower absolute translation

uATGs are associated with lower translation efficiency

uATGs associated with lower translation efficiency are over 20nt from TSS

List of genes with low TE and uATGs far from TSS

Many of these (CNAG_03140, CNAG_07695, CNAG_06246) are strongly translationally repressed and have good context at the uATG.

Many of these have the expected structure where homologs differ only at the N-terminus. There appears to be a swap between a near-ATG start codon, and a poor-context ATG, between the species.

Higher aATG score in JEC21:

• CNAG_04147/CNI02850, putative RNA helicase RRP3 homolog
• CNAG_06000/CNM00090, putative glycoprotein
• CNAG_03486/CNG01060, peptidylprolyl isomerase, Scer has CPR2/CPR5 homolgs localized to ER and vacuole.
• CNAG_06353/CNN00820, tRNA pseudouridine synthase, exciting, CNAG_06353 has weak mito loc seq, Scer has PUS1/PUS2 nuc/mito homologs.
• CNAG_06446/CNN01710, mitochondrial splicing suppressor Mss51 homolog, clear mito preseq in both.
• CNAG_01092/CND02180, hypothetical protein conserved in crypto, mito preseq in both
• CNAG_01188/CND03130, ATGATG start in H99, not interesting
• CNAG_05678/CNF02960, putative transmembrane protein involved in ammonia production.
• CNAG_07645/CNE03115 Autophagy protein Atg12, H99 CNAG_07645 has non-homologous annotated N-terminal extension that seems improbably.

Higher aATG score in H99:

• CNAG_00529/CNA05110, sulfite transporter, Scer Ssu1 homolog.
• CNAG_03410/CNG01740, upstream ATG in JEC21 close to TSS, prob not real
• CNAG_04089/CNB05680, again upstream ATG in JEC21 close to TSS, prob not real. Note that CNAG_03410/CNAG_04089 are paralogs
• CNAG_04751/CNJ01820, hypothetical protein conserved in tremellomycetes.
• CNAG_02703/CNK01910, hypothetical protein conserved in tremellomycetes.
• CNAG_03638/CNB01390, identical ATG context in fungidb, check.
• CNAG_05504/CNH01580, Iah1, pattern unclear, JEC21 just has poor start codons.
• CNAG_05692/CNF02820, sphinganine kinase, Scer YSR3/LCB2 homolog.
• CNAG_07609/CNC03180, putative RNA helicase, weak start context in JEC21 predicts less protein in cell. Or most translation initiation is from much later ATG? DDX51/DBP6 homolog.

These look like mostly misannotated in one strain, or not interesting. Is the upstream start codon in one strain actually used? Check for ribosome footprints and for other features (homology, mito localization seq). It would be nice to have an additional filter here.

* these genes were used to construct the consensus sequence.

In S. cerevisiae: TRM1 is dual-localized to mito and cyto. APE2 is dual mito/cyto localized. GDA1 is golgi-localized. NPY1 is peroxisome and cyto localized. GCY1 and YCR1 are nucleus/cytoplasm localized. FPR1 is multiply localized. MXR2 is mito localized.

CND00900 has two adjacent ATGs to start (GCTTTTATGATGTCC), the 2nd of which gives the good context score due to the A in the first.

aATG motif scores, comparing Kozak vs non-canonical tRS

In JEC21 only. Red: high dATG vs aATG Kozak score. Blue: highly translated. Purple: both.

Note that many points are overplotted at the same y-values because the score is mostly quantized on a small number of values.

High utRS score is slightly enriched in mito-localized genes

Note we do not control for expression or any other potential factor affecting ATG context.

To-do: Analysis of other tRNA synthetases

For example, CNM01290, Leucine-tRNA synthetase, was on a previous version of this list. It has good kozak score at aATG and conserved out-of-frame dATG.
